Was she hiding in a cave?

October 16, 2007 in Illinois Review, Republicans | by robnesvacil

What planet is Eunice Conn on? She tells us today that she was:

…a bit saddened when I read that [Illinois Republican Party chair] Andy McKenna endorsed Steve Sauerberg … because Mr. McKenna did not meet with all the candidates running for the U.S. Senate seat.

You see, Eunice apparently knows another Republican candidate, Mike Psak. And I can understand her disappointment to a degree. Dr. Sauerberg hedged on so many questions at his kick-off announcement that news columnists labeled him “slippery“.

But poor, poor Eunice… She must’ve missed all the news about Andy McKenna and IRP specifically recruiting Dr. Sauerberg. Why wouldn’t Mr. McKenna endorse him?

Is Proft a Gov Hopeful or a Court Jester? …Twittering the Day Away July 11, 2009
Considering that we just impeached a goofball and are enduring some some fireworks with the new guy… it doesn’t bode well that one of the GOP gubernatorial hopefuls spent the afternoon trading sophomoric barbs with the citizens he claims to want to lead and breathlessly giving us his quicktake on minutes-old news by tapping away [...]

Word of the Day: Fizzled July 10, 2009
A choice quote from Sen. Roland Burris’ campaign manager Delmarie Cobb, via a Trib blog: “As you know, there have been many marquee names thrown out for this seat and so far they have all fizzled,” Cobb said. “With [Burris] as the incumbent, it seems the Democratic Party would do well to rally around the person [...]

We don’t take kindly… July 9, 2009
Everyone makes mistakes, even lil ol me. But if the allegations against Rep. Froehlich are true (and he doesn’t need to wait for a States Attorney investigation to know if they are or not) … he should just go. Retire. Resign. Buy that B&B in the country. Go hike the Appalachian Trail. Whatever. I don’t care what [...]

Fran Eaton and the GOP’s Trillion-Whine ‘Misread’ July 8, 2009
Short version: Conservatives like Illinois Review’s Fran Eaton and the NRCC press office from which she lifted a boilperplate attack can’t both complain that Obama’s Recovery Act spends too much money and complain that it’s not doing enough… That’s illogical and actually serves to bolster liberals’ arguments that a s […]

And don’t just say “Thank you” (though every veteran I say it to appreciates it)… Back up your gratitude by helping one of any number of veterans’ causes that help us civilians do our small part to honor the sacrifices they made on our behalf.

I agree with Eunice. Sauerberg will lose the primary to Psak, a Chicago conservative who has been campaigning for about 18 months. He’s a member of the Illinois Center Right Coalition Steering Committee. He supports President Bush’s Iraq policies. Psak is pro-tax cuts, pro-spending cuts, pro-life, anti-illegal alien, pro-gun rights, and anti-gay marriage. Please read his website, http://www.psak4ussenate.com.

Interesting…

- What taxes would he cut?

- What spending would he cut in order to follow PAYGO rules?

- If he is “pro-life” — is he against the war which is killing thousands of innocent Iraqi men, women and children?

- Does he plan to deport all illegal aliens? How does he propose to pay for tracking them down and physically deporting them (esp. in light of his interest in cutting taxes)?

- What does “pro-gun rights” mean? The second amendment is part of our Constitution, does he interpret this amendment liberally or narrowly?

- Why does he oppose equal marriage for all? Does he also propose banning marriage for infertile couples since the lack of an ability to reproduce is often cited by conservatives as the rationale for discrimination?

….Thanks for stopping by to spam the blog a week and a half after I wrote my original post, Mr. Collins. I look forward to your responses, or those of Mr. Psak himself.

I do wish the best for Mr. Psak. Sen. Durbin might have re-elect numbers along the lines of record-breaking Obama/Keyes race.
